golf shoes

i must admit i like a nice comfortable pair of shoes...and most regular guys who golf feel the same way. i mean we are walking around a lot and shoes that are not comfortable, well probably would affect your game. remember last year i think it was when fred couples showed up to a golf tournament in a pair of the now famous and often mimicked casual shoes? i thought he had just forgot to pack his golf shoes and the pro shop did not have his size? but seems ecco started making them and now they are really popular. i have seen several regular guys right here in nc wearing them. now there are several pro's wearing them or ones that look similar...and then there is tiger? what in the he double hockey sticks is the man thinking? i mean seriously? i saw those things he wears now and thought ok he has to wear those now because he has old man knees, but no...he chooses to wear them. i think we all know that tiger need to go back to being the ho he was and play some golf. i digress.

a regular guy who plays golf should have at least 2 pair, one white (have to admit it took me a couple of years before i broke down and bought some white shoes) and one black. several reasons for having two pair, not just for the fashion end of things, but what if you pull a move like i did once at riverwood with the cow farmer, jump a small ditch to get your wayward ball just to find out that the other side is as close to quicksand as it gets...yeah up to my ankles in yucky stuff.

not sure why shoes came to mind just now, but next time i will be writing a review about duke university golf club. i have played there a couple of times, but monday will be a tournament and with all the wet stuff we have been getting, it will either be soggy or green as all get out. until then, don't forget to golf your balls.
